Summary created with AI assistance
- According to Januka Attanayake, a seismologist at the University of Melbourne in Australia, the energy released by the 7.8 magnitude quake on Monday morning was roughly 32 petajoules.
- It's also the same amount of energy as approximately 8 million tons of TNT.
- The local magnitude scale, usually known as the Richter scale, is logarithmic, which means that when the magnitude increases by one, the energy generated by the earthquake increases by around 31.6 times.
- One of the region's deadliest earthquakes occurred in 1822, when a 7.0 magnitude earthquake killed 200,000 people.
